Wrath Becomes Her

Lithuania, 1943. Grieving for his daughter, one father uses kishufan ancient and profane magicto create a golem in her image, not a real girl of flesh and blood but a nearly invincible avenging spirit of mud and steel. But when Vera awakens, its not only with a violent purpose, but with memories of the real girl killed by the Nazis. Then she meets Akiva, a boy she already remembersthe feel of his hand in her hair, his lips on her skinand instantly joins him on a quest for revenge. But there are those who would channel kishuf for less noble means, and to triumph, Vera will need more than what her creator gave her: not just a reason to fight, but a reason to live.
